Come learn the foundational skills needed for all levels of needle play, from mean/sadistic needles to decorative/artsy scenes to predicament play as well as  other pokie shenanigans. This class will focus on safety considerations, supplies, how to use them and where to get them and the technique on how to pierce someone by the end of class. Needle play carries an element of risk, learn what some of the significant risks are and how to mitigate them.  You do not need any prior kink experience and this class is for tops, bottoms and switches. You do not need any supplies(needles, sharps containers, gloves and more), these will be provided per “pair/pods”. This class aims to be inclusive of all Identities regardless of gender, sex, age, and races. I am happy to accommodate anyone's (dis)abilites to the best of my ability. 

You will benefit in this class by coming with a piercing partner(s).  If you do not bring someone to pierce, you will need to share non-human practice supplies with other classmates in pods during class and either use practice supplies provided or pierce yourself in class during demo practice time. If you are choosing to self-pierce, I suggest bringing/wearing loose shorts.

Sure, you can learn fancy shibari harnesses from video tutorials. But while you’re busy perfecting your knots, your submissive might be wishing you’d just Master them instead. In this class, we shift the focus away from intricate patterns and back toward connection, sensation, and erotic flow.

One Long Rope is a hands-on rope bondage workshop that explores freestyle floorwork using a single 25–30 foot rope. We’ll move through a continuous sequence of transitions and positions designed to maintain contact, control, and intimacy. Rather than memorizing a pattern, you’ll learn to use rope for play, staying connected to your partner and present in the moment.

This class is intended to be hands-on, so bring rope, a partner, and a sense of curiosity. A basic understanding of the Single Column Tie is recommended; we’ll start with a brief refresher before diving into the sequence. Expect more time to tie, more chances to switch, and plenty of space for improvisation.

This class is designed for couples. You man attend solo, but be prepared to be partnered with a stranger for class exercises.

Scenes are made and broken by how you adapt to the unexpected. Sometimes this means heading off or recovering from a major problem, but much more often it's small things. Did you notice that the other person is having a harder time than usual with one of their favorite toys? Why did you feel angry when the one thing happened and what did you do about it? Remember that time you made a radical pivot mid-scene and it was awesome? How do you respond to a broken whatever?

Nothing ever goes exactly the way you planned. External events happen, gear fails, ramifications occur.  We run with something that's working unexpectedly well. We try new things and do them imperfectly or discover the fantasy was hotter. People make mistakes and are complicated. You can pre-think safety, own what happens, make course corrections, communicate, and choose to learn. These are things you can do before, during, and after play to decrease the risks of harm, and increase the benefits of error.

This class will include presentation on skills, and talking through real-life incidents small and large to practice the skills . Many of the incidents will be accompanied by video. Some of Russell's many imperfect moments have been recorded by camera crews, which provide a unique opportunity to dissect exactly what happened, why, how our awareness developed, what we did about it, and how that worked out.

Some of this material can be emotionally challenging, but you will come away from the class with tools for when you encounter the unexpected in your scenes.
